Anatomy of Cable

100

The characteristic of RF propagation in a cable in which the higher frequencies tend to travel along the surface of the conductor rather than throughout its mass.

Skin Effect:

200

The insulating material separating two conductors, such as that between the center conductor and sheath in a coaxial cable.

Dielectric

300

Passage of signal intended to remain within the cable into the outside world can result in a weaker signal at the end of the cable and radio frequency interference to nearby devices.

Egress

400

Passage of an outside signal into the cable can result in noise and disruption of the desired signal.

Ingress

500

This type of cable is jacketed with a fire-retardant plastic jacket. Because it is part of the air distribution system, cables installed in this space require a higher fire rating.
